5 Mile House

The food was excellent.Service with a hometown smile.Great feel to the place.The bbq half chicken was amazing.....and if you have gluten issues like me, there are gf buns, and with the bbq plates just ask for the corn bread on a separate plate for one of your other dining companions to enjoy.

Mac and cheese, side of grilled veg were dreadful.Cornbread would make any Texan cringe.Sides to bbq dinner were pitiful Service was atrocious. A waitress from another table was good and covered for the one assigned to us. Party of six...mandatory 18% was not deserved.Music was too loud and poor quality. Painful to listen to and hard to hold a conversation

Went here for the first time yesterday...love it! Nice casual atmosphere, friendly staff and good food! Give it a try. Can't wait for nice weather so we can try out their huge patio area

It's fine for what it is, but it's a bummer to drive up there and get mediocre food that isn't cheap. The service was fine and the owner is absolutely lovely and very attentive. Do not sit in the back room; they use white fluorescent lighting that feels like a dentist waiting room. It was 100% not the ambiance I was hoping for and the food was incredibly underwhelming. To be fair I've only been once since they reopened and I didn't try everything on the menu. It's bar food with a restaurant price tag. I will not be returning.

Great BBQ. Awesome beer selection. You gotta stop by!We had the tritip sandwich which was great. The owner heard my girlfriend was from Dallas and said we had to try his brisket. It was the best BBQ we've had outside of Texas!

This place is truly amazing! We had possibly the best service anywhere in Nevada County-- very attentive and friendly.... We actually stayed for a third drink! The food was delicious and the outdoor dining was fantastic! My husband and I ordered a BBQ combo tri-tip and Brisket plus a western burger. Both excellent but the onion rings were top notch and the tri-tip is worthy of a BBQ competition-- it was THAT GOOD! Also the jalapeño poppers were house made and delicious. All this food and drink was barely $100 , which makes it an outstanding value also! We will definitely become "regulars"!!

Today was our 1st time going here and it is definitely worth the drive? The setting is very nice on the eyes, the service was very very nice and the food was the big surprise! I had the brisket and two sides and this was the best brisket I have ever tasted? I've tasted a lot !! You will smell the mesquite wood burning before entering and the food is just as nice! The owner is a very nice guy and serves all with a smile! The cost is quite affordable! The portion was impressive and I will say this will be our place to visit once a month moving forward! Try this place once and I promise you'll like it too? I'm gonna do my part in supporting this one of a kind place and I hope yall will too?

Finally, the 5 Mile House is back in business with new owners and has captured the original vibe of yesteryear! It's a welcoming and picturesque restaurant and bar that includes burgers, pizza, sandwiches and much more to eat, as well as a full beer bar menu. There's live music on the weekend -- either on their outdoor lawn stage, spacious patio, or inside as the weather changes. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, lots of parking spaces, and many tables available inside and out. This is one of those gems that feels like a vacation getaway in the Sierra Foothills!

The ambiance of this place is great! Love the outside area with tables and lights. Great place to eat outdoors with your dog. The food is a little limited but the server said they were planning to add many more items. Food was ok. Hopefully as time goes on, everything will get even better

I really enjoyed the brisket. It was perfectly seasoned and well smoked. The BBQ chicken was also nicely smoked. However, it was either over "brined" or the brine was too salty. The chicken skin was like shoe leather. The most disgusting thing I tried was the coleslaw. It tasted like pure vinegar.The beer menu was fairly extensive with a great selection of brews. Overall the food was on the expensive side.Fred
